The Broncos have a very im- pre'sive urecordc this year inluding .a. 16~ to 42 Iritnuph over Notre Dane, urrently rated as one of the top eanvs in tieeMidwest. Starting Lineup Michigan's starting lineup will be practically the same as it was for Central Michigan,*with the exception Ihat Tom King will probably start at one of the forwards. Tom has looked very impressive in practice this week and has been averaging close to 15 points in all of the practice games. The other forward will be Dave Strack who last Saturday took top scoring honors with 13 points. The starting guards will be Don Lund and Dick Shrider, -a combina- tion which has been working very efficiently the past week. The center spot will be handled by Bill Oren. However, Bill Seymour has been com- ing along very nicely this week and should see considerable action at the pivot position. Summary of Basketball In a summary of basketball activi- ules this week, three events of note- wor thy importance have taken place ' 1 i cu 6 i i'M. place tHowie W'iktl has ujped out of school as le is being inducted in the Army very cihortly. Secondly, Tom Paton, giant 6'5" center, has returned to action. Paton's ailing knee is well on the road to re- covery and he should be ready for next Saturday night's game with Western Michigan. The third event of importance was the appearance of Elroy Hirsch, who is now tryih, out for the basketball w team. Hirsch is in pretty fair shape as lie's been out for track ever since rs the football season closed. With - irsch's ailing shoulder greatly im- proved it is quite possible that the ex- e Badger star will see much service n h ear on the hardwood r .fit.

Interest is centered in the distancej events which are loaded with poten- tial stars. Heading the field are the1 Hume twins, Captain Bob and Ross, and long-striding Johnny Roxbor- ough. Dick Barnard, who showed considerable talent last year, George Vetter and Bob Thompson round out I the top performers in the half, mile and two-mile events. Michigan power, as usual, will be loaded in the mile and two-mile re- lays. Doherty can put two veteran quartets on the track that will stack up against any in the country. In the two-mile event, Doherty has a team comprising the Hume twins, Roxborough and Bob Ufer which is faster, on paper, than the cham- pionship quartet of last season.
